Choice Recommended Title, February 2010 Culture, Class, Distinction
is major contribution to international debates regarding the role
of cultural capital in relation to modern forms of inequality.
Drawing on a national study of the organisation of cultural
practices in contemporary Britain, the authors review Bourdieu's
classic study of the relationships between culture and class in the
light of subsequent debates. In doing so they re-appraise the
relationships between class, gender and ethnicity, music, film,
television, literary, and arts consumption, the organisation of
sporting and culinary practices, and practices of bodily and self
maintenance. As the most comprehensive account to date of the
varied interpretations of cultural capital that have been developed
in the wake of Bourdieu's work, Culture, Class, Distinction offers
the first systematic assessment of the relationships between
cultural practice and the social divisions of class, gender and
ethnicity in contemporary Britain. It is essential reading for
anyone interested in the relationships between culture and society.
